📱 Telegram Integration Setup
Step-by-step guide to connect your Telegram group or channel
1
Create a Telegram Bot
Open Telegram and search for @BotFather. Send it /newbot, follow the prompts to name your bot, then copy the Bot Token it gives you — it looks like 7123456789:AAFxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
2
Add the Bot to Your Group or Channel
Open your production group/channel → Settings → Administrators → Add Admin → search your bot's username → grant it permission to Post Messages. If it's a channel, the bot must be an admin with "Post" rights.
3
Find Your Chat ID
Option A — Easy: Forward any message from your group to @userinfobot on Telegram. It will reply with the chat ID.

Option B — API: Send a message in your group, then open this URL in your browser (replace TOKEN with your bot token):
https://api.telegram.org/botTOKEN/getUpdates
Look for "chat":{"id": in the JSON — that number is your Chat ID. Group/channel IDs start with -100.
4
Find Thread ID (Forum Groups Only)
Only needed if your group is a Forum (has Topics). Right-click on a topic name → Copy Link. The last number in the URL is the Thread ID. Example: t.me/c/1234567890/42 → Thread ID is 42. Leave blank for regular groups/channels.
5
Enter Your Settings
Paste your Bot Token and Chat ID into the fields above. Save Settings. Then when you send a timesheet, the PDF will be uploaded directly to your Telegram group as a document — no file size limits, no third-party services.
💡 Pro tip: Use Markdown in your message template for formatting. Wrap text in *asterisks* for bold, _underscores_ for italic. Set Parse Mode to Markdown in the Send modal.
How To Use TPS Timesheet
Quick guide to submitting your daily timesheet
1
Add Your Crew
Go to My Crew in the sidebar and add all the people you work with — their name and position. You only need to do this once. You can also add a photo for each crew member.
2
Join a Show
Go to My Shows and click + Join a Show. Pick your production from the list (created by your Admin) and enter your department name (e.g. Gypsy Village).
3
Assign Crew to the Show
On your show card click the ⚙ gear icon. Check the crew members working on that show. Drag the handles to set their order on the timesheet. Hit Save & Continue.
4
Create a Daily Timesheet
Click + Sheet on your show card. Your crew is already pre-filled. Select today's date, enter each person's Time In / Lunch In / Lunch Out / Time Out in military time (e.g. 07:00, 13:00). Totals calculate automatically.
5
Apply Times to Everyone
If everyone has the same times, use the Apply to all rows toolbar — fill in the times once and click ✓ Apply to fill the whole sheet instantly.
6
Save & Submit
Click 💾 Save Sheet to store it. Then use ⬇ Download PDF to get a printable copy, ✉ Email PDF to send it directly, or ✈ Telegram to post it to your group. Past sheets are always in Timesheets.
💡 Tips
• Military time: 7am = 07:00 · Noon = 12:00 · 1pm = 13:00 · 6pm = 18:00 · Midnight = 24:00
• Force Call checkbox = employee called in early/forced
• NDB = No Deduction at Break (lunch not deducted)
• Rerate = rate change applies — add details in the Notes field
• Timesheets auto-save your show and crew so tomorrow you just click + Sheet and fill times
